Hello,

I think you may be having scabies and there is a treatment for this. You can get checked by a dermatologist to see it with a magnifying glass. You should take permethrin and benzyl benzoate cream to put it and wash after 12 hours.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
